MLB 5/21/2019: The Red(s) Wedding in Milwaukee

  We will focus on FanDuel GPP for the MLB season but the picks could easily translate over to DK and cash lineups in most cases. We will try to get a post out daily before the evening main slates during the week and hopefully bring you some winning picks. Without further ado let's get to it.

Bump It Up: (Pitcher we are paying up for)
Zach Greinke ($11000): Greinke has had 9 straight quality starts and gets a good matchup at San Diego against a predominantly righty lineup.  It's not often you see pitchers go 6 innings let alone 7 which Greinke has done in 5 of his last 7 starts.  A lot of people will pay up for Verlander if they are paying up, so save $1000 and plug in Greinke here.

Bump It Down: (Pitcher to pay down for)
German Marquez ($8200): Pitching away from Coors already gives German a nice bump and now he gets to toe the rubber in one of the better parks for pitchers in PNC.  He has elite strikeout potential and while the Pirates only hold a K% around 21, Marquez can find a way to miss bats and keep the ball in the ballpark.

Stacks for Cash: 
Cincinnati Reds - The Reds face Gio Gonzalez in Milwaukee and while Gio has been solid since deciding to play baseball again, the Reds have some pop in their lineup that can mash LHP. I'll be firing up Nick Senzel and Eugenio Suarez, then looking for some value with Phillip Ervin ($2000) and Jose Iglesias ($2400)

New York Yankees- If you stack the Reds like I suggest above and roll with Marquez at SP, that leaves almost $3800 per player to fill in your lineup. Yankees might be popular tonight but this is about as can't miss as you can get @BAL. With the Astros and Rangers garnering some ownership as well, the Yanks may sneak by as a lesser owned stack then we think. Fire up Gary Sanchez, DJ LeMahieu and Gleyber Torres.

Seattle Mariners - Lance Lynn is one of those pitchers that has historically struggled against lefties and while the Mariners don't have many but they do have the big bopper in Dan Vogelbach who's hit homeruns in 5 of his last 6 games.  Don't be afraid to throw Haniger or Encarnacion in there, but if you're looking for another lefty Omar Narvaez could do the trick.

Wave that baby bye bye: (HR calls)
$3900+: Rhys Hoskins
$3000-3800: Dan Vogelbach
$2000-2900: Sean Kingery (let's try this again)
